Calling all hamster owners!!!

Hamster's got a free-standing 'willy' wheel in her cage, tried it on bars first - but moved it to free-standing because it was 'quieter'
Still driving me nutty

Is there such a thing as a 'silent' wheel that ACTUALLY works??

We never found one. Hammy was kept downstairs. Good luck in your quest.

We find the "silent spinner" type to be pretty much silent - not totally though... You just hear a very slight "whooshing" noise when it's in use - no squeak or rattle at all.

OP-try some Vaseline on the plastic bit that attaches the wheel to the metal.

oil it

Thanks for the suggestions everyone.
Going to try sugru in place of vaseline and hope for the best....
